Although the gut microbiota can influence brain function, evidence for brain activity-driven changes in microbial communities is limited. Here, the authors provide direct support for bidirectional communication in the brain-to-gut axis by demonstrating that modulation of hypothalamic circuits can rapidly alter gut microbiota composition.
